The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Ceasefires may be between state actors or involve non-state actors.
- Unlike declarations of a cessation of hostilities or a truce, a cease-fire is generally meant to be binding.
- Like a cessation of hostilities or truce, it is only temporary in nature but is generally expected to last for a longer period of time.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ceasefire article was read about 90,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 69 and blocks with 61: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
How to get Ceasefire
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
